Well, it is... so... Satirical speech is most certainly protected by the First Amendment.

The only people responsible for your stupidity is you. Unless you are a Democrat....then it's the responsibility of the republican that posted a meme that told you to jump off a bridge.

Posting memes isn’t a crime. No one is stupid enough to fall for that anyways.


Oh, but they are.

Have you seen the Warning Labels on various items in the Country?

And let me restate that post for clarity. If he intentionally posted a meme to directly misinform a class of voters on the voting process, there should be punishment for that.


If anyone is stupid enough to fall for this, they are shitty voters too.

It's a meme. This kind of meme has been going around for years. Retarded people think it should be illegal because they are too stupid to realize it's a joke.

Exactly, anyone that falls for the type of crap posted online in today’s world shouldn’t be voting as far as I’m concerned. The truth is the truth and I don’t care how that makes me sound.

They are trying to give him 10 years. More than most kid diddlers. Absolutely ridiculous. Anyone who thinks this guy should have been arrested is an absolute moron or a fascist.

He posted a meme and now faces a criminal charge.

Explain in detail how posting that meme (or any meme) threatened the right to vote for anyone.


He created a system to try and interfere with voting practice. He has postings online that it was his intent to do so. He posted the the "meme" as factual information in places with hopes it would trick people into thinking they were casting their vote when they weren't. It was fashioned as being sent from Hillary and targeted at her voters.

Not sure why yall are calling it a meme. It wasn't a meme. Memes are humorous or at least interesting.

Because they're trying to send a political message to anyone who dares challenge our progressive betters.

I wasn’t aware that we have a ruling King now and whatever law the King makes will be followed without question

So we went from Russia to this guy? I don’t care if someone fell for it, if they were stupid enough to fall for it then they shouldn’t be voting to begin with.

I'm with you. Doesn't mean it is legal.

Despite whoever any particular idiot votes for, I don't think people should be allowed to prey on their weaknesses.
